This 3-foot tall wind turbine kit allows users to build and operate a functional model to explore wind energy as a renewable power source. The turbine features single-piece blades designed for durability and aerodynamic efficiency. It generates electricity capable of charging a rechargeable battery, which can then power a small model car. The updated weatherproof battery box enables outdoor use, and included ground stakes provide stability for the turbine. This educational set was recognized as a 2021 finalist for The Toy Association's Outdoor Toy of the Year award.

Online Review Summaries:
Things to Keep in Mind
The product frequently struggles with its core functionality; the wind turbine often fails to spin effectively or generate sufficient power to charge batteries, and the included vehicle component frequently does not move as intended, even with a fully charged battery. Many users report durability issues, with components like plastic gears and the base breaking easily, leading to disappointment and a quick loss of interest. Rechargeable batteries are also not included and can be difficult to source.
Why You'll Like It
The kit is widely appreciated for its strong educational concept, effectively teaching children about wind power and renewable energy. The instruction manual is generally well-regarded as clear and easy to follow, and the overall idea can capture a child's interest and imagination.
